The package.json requires a start script, copying as is gives an error in now CLI: `> Error! Missing `start` (or `now-start`) script in `package.json`. See: https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/start`

description: Deploying your GraphQL server to Zeit Now
|

|
|
|
|
Now is a service by Zeit that allows the deployment of an instance of Apollo Server, which provides a functional GraphQL endpoint.
|
|
|
|
## Node.js Deployment
|
|
|
|
Deployment to Now for Node.js apps simply requires a `package.json` file to be present in your app directory.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
{
|
|
"name": "graphqlservice",
|
|
"version": "1.0.0",
|
|
"scripts": {
|
|
"start": "nodemon index.js"
|
|
},
|
|
"dependencies": {
|
|
"apollo-server": "^2.0.0-rc.5",
|
|
"graphql": "^0.13.2",
|
|
"nodemon": "^1.17.5"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Deploy server to Now
|
|
|
|
Install the [now CLI](https://zeit.co/download#now-cli), then visit your server directory and run the `now` command:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
$ now
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The `now` command immediately deploys your server to the cloud and returns the hosted project link. Send a query to your GraphQL server on `now` at `<NOW_APP_NAME>.now.sh`.
|
|
|
|
### Deploying directly from GitHub
|
|
|
|
If you have your GraphQL server published to GitHub, Now provides the ability to deploy straight from GitHub to the cloud.
|
|
|
|
Assuming you'd like to deploy an instance of [apollo](https://github.com/apollographql)'s [graphql-server-example](https://github.com/apollographql/graphql-server-example), this is what you'll do:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
$ now apollographql/graphql-server-example
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The `now` command deploys right away and gets the server up and running on the cloud. Furthermore, running the following command will automatically start delivering reports to Apollo Engine.
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
$ now -e ENGINE_API_KEY=xxxxxxxxx apollographql/graphql-server-example
|
|
```
